ris Hotel from where they started in the

the lungs set in, and after consultation
the lieutenant was persuaded to return TO

which they had been obliged to leave be-
hind them in their most difficult journey,
they found themselves near the house of

Never were a party more glad to see a

Haynes has won the lasting esteem of

perfectly self possessed during the whole
journey never complained, was always
ready to take his place and perform his

four men will make an admirable group,

CHECKING CONSUMPTION.
Effect of Gases Woman Whose Life
was Despaired or

New Orleans Dispatch to New York Tribune
The medical fraternity of this CITY is
considerably excited over the case of Mrs.
h. w. Albers, whose death within few
days from galloping consumption was
declared as certain by several leading
physicians Il month ago, but who is now
apparently on the TOAD to complete recov-
cry. She is the wife of A. w. Albers a
prominent druggist of this city. When
all the doctors had given his wife up Mr..
Albers determined to try carbonic acid
gas and sulphuretted hydrogen gas as
first administered by Prof Bergeon of
Lyons, France, and recently experimental
with at the hospital in Philadelphia Two
thirds of Mrs. Albers's left lung was des-
troyed when the treatment was begun
with an lmproVlsed apparatus on March 20.
Result OF first Week-a gam of one pound
clear. At the end of the second week-a
gain in weight of two and half pounds,
making clear gain of three and half
pounds for two weeks. One of the fea-
lures was that the temperature, which
upon the administration of the gas showed
a fever of l02 declined in half an hour to
9S'. A sudden drop of was followed by
a craving for food, which seemed to agree
| perfectly with the patient, and in turn
followed half an hour by a drowsy sensa-
ton prompting the patient to sleep, wax
ening from which she had perfectly rest
full feeling, The gas reaches the lungs
within ten minutes after the admnistra-
| ton, and is clearly discernible on the
breath by the CHARACTERISTIC odor of the
| sulphuretted hydrogen which Is used
The apparatus used by Mr.. Albers was
improvised by himself and is simple, con-
sisting of two rather large sized bottles
one containing the ingredient for making
carbonic acid gas and the other charged
to generate sulphuretted hydrogen gas
The bottles are connected by means of
small rubber tubes and the gas is collect
ed or stored in large bag similar to the
Laughing gas bags used by dentists.
The gas finds an exit through a rubber
tube ending in a syringe.

An Island with Nineteen Families.

From the Pail Mall GaZette.1
The islands of Tristan d. Acumha, al
though isolated in the South Atlantic,
have received the distinction of having
Blue Book devoted to them and their con-
Germs. According to the latest report there
are now on the island 10 families, compris-
ing % sou S, namely: Aged men, 3; aged
women, 5; men 20 years of age and over,
II boys from IA to 20 years of age, 9; mar
ried women, 3; widows with large fami-
lies), l6; girls over IA years of age, 20; chill
dren under IA years Of age, 30 of both
sexes total, 81. Some time since they
sustained disastrous loss, the whaleboat
in which Is of their men put to sea to
intercept a passing vessel being lost and
every one being drowned. Reduced in
number in this way, they have been put
to great straits. A plague of rats has also
invaded the island and done great destruc-
ton to the potato crop. The Vermin
landed from shipwrecked vessel which
came ashore on The coast. The govern
M mt has considered the question of convey
ing the islanders to the Cape or Australia,
but in the meantime they have contented
themselves with instructing a ship of war
to pay an annual visit to the island. The
islanders have rule after the republican
fas hon, but they regard themselves as
under the English crown. Peter w Green,
who was shpwrecked on the island about
so years ago, is at the head or the
community.

The Same Old Story.
Butland Herald.

The Baltimore sun has just caught on
to the story which went the rounds some
months ago about the increase of Hitter
acy in Vermont. 1t is not pleasant for us
to face the fact, but it is interesting to see
the application made of it in the South
The sun says;
"Things are out of joint when the teacher
is in worse position than it's pupil. Sen
ator Blair of New Hampshire has propos-
ed through his bill to educate the South,
but it appears that there are Southern
States where a larger. proportion of the
shire, Maine and Vermont. Only 72 per
cent of the school population of Vermont
attended school last year, as against 70
per cent. in West Virginia and 20 per
cent in Texas. The daily average attend
ance in Vermont was from Go to 60 per
cent as against 60 per cent. in South
Carolina and 70 in Florida. If the usual
reason in regard to illiteracy is worth
anything, Vermont is relapsinS and the
Down Eastern, generally have dark
prospect before them"
The figures are undeniabe but they do
not necessarily show that ignorance is
gaming on learning here The number of
private schools has multiplied here. They
do not make returns of attendance, conse-
quently the pupils which they draw from
the public schools reduce the number re.
ported but not the number educated. 1t
Is believed that in the private and paro-
chial schools of Rutland alone there are
more than 1900 pupils. The same IS true
in diminished degree of all the large
towns in Vermont. This attendance, if
reported, might show that even more
children are becoming educated in Ner-
mont that ever before.

THE PATHos OF A CRUEL DEATH.
Scenes and Remarks at the Funeral of the
Railway Victim.

Railway victim.
The exercises at the funeral of the MUIR
dered girl in Railway. n. j., as reported
by the New York Times, are so full of
pathos, humanity and impressiveness,
that we copy them in full. AS this case
will probably become historic, and as such
wide interest attaches to it, a description
like the following is of permanent interest !:
The city of Railway gave decent funeral
Monday to the unknown girl who was
murdered in the suburbs of the place over
two weeks ago. The body was robed in a
white satin shroud and placed in a beau
tiful white casket, with silver trimmings.
Early in the afternoon the casket was
taken to the First Presbyterian church,
on Grand street, and put on platform in
the vestibute. Floral tributes were taste
fully arranged on the dead girls breast
and in her dark brown tresses. The
bruised face was exposed under glass so
that persons passing into the church
could view it before taking seats A mag.
niticent pillow of roses, lilies, azaeas, and
other flowers was placed on the casket by
the children of the Sunday school, and
ID. IL Ryno left a bunch of ferns and cut
flowers near the plate. Hundreds who
passed into the church read this uncom-
mon inscription that told the story of the
mysterious Grim with striking brevity

Woman Suffrage in Topeka.

A lady in Topeka writing to a cores
pendent in this city regarding municipal
suffrage for Kansas women says: "Know-
ing the importance of the primaries the
ladies determined to attend, and were
asked to meet in the several wards, at
some central places and go in large bodies.
The meeting for the third ward was at
our house. On the morning of the pri-
maries, early, Judge Metsker, one of our
republican candidates for mayor, sent up
requesting the privilege of sending hacks
for the ladies who, he understood, were to
meet here. AS he was not the candidate
most of us favored, l declined his offer
with thanks. By spending $4,000, so far
to secure votes, he has secured the nomln-
alton.
There is one demand which do hope
women will invariably make, good char
acter in a candidate. To the Lord who
when compared with character, and if
women help to purify politics they must
take high ground. The ballot is too pre-
cious gift to be used carelessly.
Everything was just as orderly as could
be at the primaries. The men stepped cour-
teously to the right and left and there
was not the slightest unpleasant feature
Our society hold weekly meetings and,
at the next one, Judge Metsker wished to
address the ladies and did. do not believe
any candidate for Office was ever subjected
to closer questioning, all concerning moral
matters, temperance, buying votes, houses
of prostitution. the kind of officers to be
appointed, ETC., etc. His responses and
evasions were not satisfactory to the ma
Jorlty of the ladies'. This week
our present democratic mayor and candi-
date for reelection requests the privilege
of being interviewed by the ladies, and
will have the opportunity on Wednes
day"

Yankee.

The story goes that the imperious Bern
hardt, who has always been the terror of
stage managers, met her match in San
tiago. She threatened not to act unless
certain demands were complied with.
The manager told her that he was minis
theatre, and if she did not go on she would
go off-to Jail. She took refuge in frenzy
of tears, but she went on the stage and
played the play out. Just previous to her
departure she learned that the manager
was not minister of police at all, but a
